    HP ProBook 650 G1 BIOS unlock

    Hi!

    I have here three BIOS dumps from two locked HP ProBook 650 G1s and one which is not locked.

    First I tried to flash the unlocked BIOS to the other two, but I seem to run into some ME issue, because it takes very long until the first BIOS screen appears. Am I right?

    I found out there are ME cleaning tools out there...can you recommend any tool?

    How do you pros clear the passwords? Do you do it "by hand and experience" in a hex-editor or is there also a tool out there for cleaning the passwords?

    Thanks in advance, Peter

      There are tools to clean me like me injector etc but they dont work in newer models. Preferred way is to clean me with intel FITC(Flash Image Tool) which you can download from web. You also need to download me firmware repository packs for virgin me files. The FITC tool will depend on the me version used. There is no universal FITC tool which will clean me . Watch a couple of youtube videos to clear whatever doubts you have.

          [REQUEST] Dell G3 3579 BIOS Password & AMI Protected Range/BIOS Guard Unlock
          by zenius
          Hello, I have an old Dell G3 3579 (ST: 2WQ7LP2-8FC8) with a newer 8FC8 BIOS password. I have successfully attached to the flash chip (W25Q128JVSQ) on the motherboard with a CH341A programmer and made several modifications using Intel FIT (e.g., allow software SPI write) without bricking. I was also able to boot to a modified GRUB shell where I attempted to edit many BIOS security related options like BIOS Guard/Lock, Flash Signature Override, ME FW Image Re-Flash, etc.

          Unfortunately, some of these modifications like to Intel BIOS Guard failed because it is fused into the PCH. Also,...

          Bricked HP Probook 450 G7 Bios questions
          by studdy05
          Hp Probook 450 G7 s# SCD0348W35 had a locked BIOS. Bought BIOS and EC chips off Ebay that were supposed to match this machine - the 450 G7. Flashed in the BIOS on chip i bought using a CH341. BIOS unlocked next boot. Some error to contact HP. Entered BIOS and reset to system defaults and rebooted. Machine worked fine but every cold boot the contact HP message popped and everything else worked as fine. Assumed the error was from EC chip not matching BIOS that i just flashed in. So i flashed in the EC that was supposed to match from the EBay chip i bought and instant brick.

          Ive got...

          🛠️ MSI GP75 Leopard MS-17E71 – No Display, Deep BIOS/EC Troubleshooting
          by macabook
          Hello everyone,

          I’m currently working on a dead MSI GP75 Leopard (MS-17E71) motherboard (i7 CPU, NVIDIA GPU) with a no display/no backlight issue initially. After extensive investigation, I’m at a critical stage involving EC firmware, BIOS/ME region interaction, and possible deep corruption. I'm seeking advanced insight from anyone with experience in EC/BIOS sync issues or PCH-level behavior. Here’s a full breakdown:
          🧩 Initial Issue
          • Board powers on (fans spin, keyboard lights up and can be adjusted, caps lock led lights), but no display or backlight
          • External display (HDMI) shows
          ...
